Collaborative Planning Success in Fordingbridge!

We’re delighted to share the news of planning approval for a new care home and residential development in the picturesque town of Fordingbridge, Hampshire.

This milestone is the result of a truly collaborative journey - bringing together developers, consultants, and local stakeholders to shape a scheme that balances community needs, sustainability, and commercial viability.

From early feasibility through to planning submission, our team worked hand-in-hand with Highwood Group to navigate challenges, refine the brief, and co-create a design that responds sensitively to its context while delivering high-quality living environments.

Designed to BREEAM Excellent standards, the care home will feature sustainable technologies such as solar panels, heat pumps, and smart energy systems - demonstrating how thoughtful design and environmental responsibility can go hand in hand.

At RDT, we pride ourselves on a process-driven approach that’s rooted in collaboration, adaptability, and deep sector knowledge. Whether in Hampshire or elsewhere in the UK, we bring this same ethos to every project - ensuring outcomes that are not only well-designed but also well-considered.

If you're a care home operator, developer, or funder with a scheme that could benefit from a collaborative, values-led approach - let’s talk. We’d love to explore how we can help bring your vision to life.

We’re excited to see this vision come to life and look forward to applying these principles to future developments across the country.
